Integrated and Simplified Source Driver System for Displays

摘要

An integrated and simplified source driver system includes a scan driver and a data driver. The data driver has a signal controller and a plurality of data driver units each of which has a converter. The converter can convert a first control signal into display data, a driver-unit control signal and a second control signal. The data driver unit can correspondingly send a data drive signal to one of thin film transistors according to the display data and the driver-unit control signal. The second control signal is sent to the scan driver for generating a scan drive signal which is correspondingly sent to one of the thin film transistors. In a preferred embodiment, the first control signal includes an integrated drive-unit control command.
